Impressive looking one man project, it's RTS/RPG hybrid with possibility to take control of individual units in third person mode.What is shown in footage already looks impressive for big team let alone single person.But again my big concern is that this is too ambitions even for AAA team let alone one guy.Considering how much is show this time I will bet on probably slightly crazy person and hope for the best, but I am not getting my hopes high.

Looks interesting--almost starcraft-like in some respects. Nice artwork. I got a kick out of the woman in the cleavage, er... combat suit. Ready for any environment, no doubt.

It certainly looks impressive for a small studio. I hope it turns out to be as good as it looks.

Also, I hope it's not too MOBA-oriented. I'm definitely interested, but only if it has a strong single-player campaign.

I might be wrong but I think MOBA reference is to describe pace of the game.It's most likey fast clicking and reactions like MOBAs and Starcraft.Among "twitch"RTS Starcraft has no real competition(I don't consider MOBAs RTS ,they are more branch in aRPG tree imo) looks like this game tries to challenge it.

JDR yes it's MOBA:
So this is a new indie Sci-Fi ARTS game
ARTS is another name for the genre.

If it improves stupid matchmaking system other genre entries have, I'll definetly support it. Means, if matchmaking won't ever put a noob in a team with very experienced player or against him.
We'll see, I wait for the FAQ and more details.

One thing for those who have second thoughts... Another quote for the KS page:
- No pay for win!

Thanks for the post Nameless one. Unfortunately like JDR I don't like MOBA games. There a dime a dozen nowadays. I'm feeling old lately as I miss base building like in the older Command and Conquer games.:lonely:
